STOCKTON — A man was shot by police after he fired a shotgun at officers responding to reports of a disturbance Sat­urday night in a north Stockton neighborhood, authorities said.

The shooting occurred about 9 p.m. in the 500 block of Cimarron Avenue, just north of West Ham­mer Lane. Police were called to the area on reports of a distur­bance involving a man with a shotgun, said Officer Joe Silva, a spokesman for the Stockton Po­lice Department.

“When officers arrived, the suspect ran into an open ga­rage,” Silva said. “As our officers approached the open garage, the suspect opened fire on our officers, and at least one officer returned fire.”

The man was taken to the hos­pital with non-life-threatening injuries, Silva said. The names of the man who was shot and the of­ficers involved were not released Saturday night. No officers were hurt, and the Police Department has invoked a multiagency pro­tocol investigation to review the shooting, Silva said.

A neighbor who went outside to see what was happening when he noticed police said officers had already detained one man when the shooting occurred.

“They had already put one guy in a cop car,” said the neigh­bor, who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of his safety. “Then, all of a sudden, there were two gunshots, and then six or seven more.”
